This show proudly sponsored by Real American Freestyle Wrestling. We got here because the President of the United States is struggling. We got here because the President of the United States is one of the most unpopular presidents in U.S. history. We got here because he recognizes that he will lose the election.
Congress will go back into the hands of the Democratic Party next November. Can't win by playing by. traditional sets of rules. He plays by no rules. I remind you all the time, it's not the rule of law, it's the rule of God.
And what Governor Gavin Newsom, trying desperately to be Donald Trump's opponent.
Well, a person who lived out there for a while knows Gavin Newsom. And Gavin Newsom's been noticing a lot of your remarks. Tommy Lahren with us now. Tommy, what's your reaction? Does he know the president's not struggling, that his approval reading just went up five points in the last week and a half?
He passed a big, beautiful bill, the border.
So why would he just blatantly just want to give that impression that we're not paying attention? Yeah.
Well, he views everything in the bubble of California.
So is President Trump popular in West Hollywood? No, probably not. In San Francisco? No, probably not, because people think with their emotions there, they don't think necessarily logically or about their own personal safety and security. If they did, they would be supporting President Trump, especially those who are trying to rebuild their homes, by the way, in the Palisades area.
The governor doesn't seem too concerned about those folks. But Gavin just desperately wants to be the anti-Trump. And all these Democrats that want to run in 2028, they're trying to out Trump derangement syndrome one another. Who can be the most anti-Trump? And I think they're also forgetting Trump's not running against.
I know they think, oh, he's not going to run again.
So, all this positioning, you guys are wasting your time. You want to sound cool. He's got his little press office dweebs out there sending tweets. And he's also mistaking social media fame for actual popularity and favorability. They're very different things.
So I saw that with this referendum that's going to pass, you know how much it's going to cost? Between $200 million and $250 million.
Now, am I wrong? Aren't they in the red? Don't they have this huge budget deficit? Where's he going to come up with this money? Budget deficit.
Well, again, it's sacrificing the people of California, who some might be willing to do it because, again, they're emotional. They hate Trump. They got to do whatever they can to fight Trump. The state's already gerrymandered, let's be honest. There are actually a lot of Republicans in California that are way underrepresented.
And a lot of them that have felt way underrepresented, they've gone to Texas, which is why Texas wants to do something different. Or Tennessee, my state, or I mean, name it. They've fled to the red states. But this whole thing about it's a Texas trigger, well, they took that out because even if Texas maps are thrown out, theirs will still move forward. Will the voters vote for that?
I have some faith that there will be some level-headed Californians that are going to say, no, this seems like a stunt.
So it's just simple majority will get it. on a referendum. In November? Yeah, they're going to have to put her on the bottom. Yeah, special ballot.
Okay.
So it's going to get on there if you don't believe yesterday's vote.
So Gavin Newsom was asked by our own Matt Finn: what is your message to Republicans? Cut 29. They should speak up against their president. And these authoritarian tendencies. They should be outraged by what Donald Trump has just done.
Cause and effect, outraged by what's just happened with Greg Abbott and the Republicans in Texas.
So Republicans should be mad at Trump. Yeah.
I think that's a kind of a tactic they've tried before that we should rise up against Trump. I don't know if he's been paying attention for the last 10 years. That's not really where the Republican Party is. When he makes these comments about how unfavorable President Trump is and all that, whatever, the man's been elected twice. He just won the popular vote.
All right.
So, this whole thing about nobody likes Trump, again, you're speaking from an emotional California perspective. The rest of the country is pretty happy with President Trump. And this whole thing about, well, they should look at Texas. These districts that they're looking to create in Texas, they're going to one that's going to be majority black, and then they've got, I believe, two that are going to be majority Hispanic, maybe more Republican Hispanic. But are the Democrats not betting on themselves to win Hispanic voters?
I thought that that would have been, you know, maybe in play for them. You know, what's interesting is I hear that they could squeeze out as many as eight seats instead of five seats, and they might do that if they think that Gavin Newsom's got a shot at doing this.
Now, in Indiana, Mike Braun, the governor, former senator, is thinking about doing the same thing.
So they do that. I guess Illinois can't do it. I mean, what could Illinois do? You've seen what they've done. New York could try, but Mike Lower says it's unconstitutional, can't do it.
So they could shelve the rules, Kathy Hochul, to look tough. And try to redistrict again, but she does need Democrat Republican votes to win because Elise Dephonic's coming on strong. If they want to play this tit-for-tat game, they're not going to have a lot to work with. They don't have a lot of game pieces left because they've already done it. But again, I think that the people in these states, they gerrymander a more.
And these people, these Republicans that are there kind of holding down the fort, just wanting to stay where their families are, I think they'll leave. I really do. I think they're like, you know what? You want to keep doing this to us? You want to keep putting the squeeze on us?
We'll go to Texas. We'll go to Tennessee. That's fine. We'll go to Idaho. They will.
Right. From the Fox News Podcasts Network. Hey there, it's me, Kennedy. Make sure to check out my podcast, Kennedy Saves the World. It is five days a week, every week.

I hope you will join me every Tuesday and Thursday as we navigate life together and hopefully find ourselves a little bit better on the other side. Listen and follow now at FoxNewsPodcast.com. I think people will get up and move, especially when you can't balance your books.
And then you have a situation where you have family now that has moved.
So it's not that crazy where you're going to go, well, I'm going to go to Texas. I don't know anyone there. They're getting more and more people traveling across the country. But I also think it's going to be interesting because the market, now they're going to go after the president on the economy. All right.
Well, we got the trade deals in. EU just confirmed everything. And then I'm looking at the market now. Because I guess J-Powell's comments, it looks like he's going to cut rates as expected. We're almost up a thousand points right now.
Yeah.
So please tell me, Gavin Newsom, where's the president struggling?
Well, and again, they really can't point to anything. It's just how they feel. They don't like what President Trump is doing, and they don't like him securing DC, and they don't like him, you know, facilitating alligator Alcatraz and getting criminal aliens off the streets. They don't like it. It doesn't make them feel good.
So they translate that to actually Trump's doing a horrible thing.
Well, to you, not to the rest of the country. He won the popular vote. Like, the jig is up, guys. And I would also say to your earlier point, as somebody who left California, and I'm not a Californian, I'm from South Dakota, but the people that I know that have been born and raised in California, are born and raised in New York City, that have left and gone to a red state. They might have initially thought, I just can't leave.
I got family here. I just can't. I've been embedded here. This is my life. Every single one of them that I've talked to said, this is the best decision I have ever made.
I'm never looking back. But you do know that feeling of should I? Should I move to California? Yeah.
Yeah, no, should I come to you? For me, I was like, let's get the hell out of California. Did you know you wanted to add North Dakota?
South Dakota?
South Dakota.
Well, I mean, For me, I left South Dakota when I was 18. I went to school in Las Vegas.
South Dakota is not really the market to do what we want to do, right?
So you knew that. Yeah, but for me, it's more about, it doesn't mean you have to stay in a small red state. It's just if you live in one of these states and you feel like you are disenfranchised, to use a term from the left, and you're scared to leave your blue state because you don't know about leaving your family and everything that you know, you will breathe easier in a red state. Just mark my words, you will enjoy it. You'll get a lot more bang for your buck.
Your kids won't be indoctrinated at school. You'll still have traditional family values. You will breathe easy. And you know, when Democrats sit around and wonder why their numbers are going down, a lot of the stats say people have done that already, Tommy. They have.
Because, yeah. And even younger people like yourself are saying to themselves, I'm going to give the Republican Party a look. Under 45s, they now have more Republicans and Democrats, even though they're also what's growing as independents. The other big story that doesn't get enough heat because everything's behind closed doors is what's happened with the Autopen and the Biden investigation.
So Ian Sams, this guy is such a clown. He would come on the air and come on Fox and just start screaming like crazy. We don't know what we're talking about. Joe Biden is great. It was revealed yesterday he's only met with Joe Biden twice and twice on Zoom.
What? Four years, you met with him twice? Yes. Under oath, he decides to answer the questions, which shows you, I mean, we know the press secretaries have to tell a point of view, I get it, but to flat out lie every day and say, Donald, did Joe Biden's great? I mean, this he according to James Coleman, this is devastating.
It should be devastating. And also, this is a bigger discussion If the people who are working for you were not allowed to interact with you, but a couple of times and a couple of times on Zoom, They were obviously trying to sequester this guy.
So we need to know who was doing the sequestration. Was it Jill? Probably. Was it Hunter? Probably.
But who was shielding him from everybody? Was it the visiting angels? Because that's what I think it would take. Here's what James Comer said yesterday after the closed door meeting. They said the transcripts are going to come out.
Cut 36. He Communicated with Joe Biden two times. He saw Joe Biden, talked to Joe Biden two times, the entire stint. as White House spokesperson. But yet he would every day tweet and and issue statements from the podium of the White House.
You know, combating everything that we were doing in the oversight committee with respect to the investigation, combating the Her report, saying he didn't know. In fact, Robert Hurr spent more time. With Joe Biden, then Ian Sams.
So, to remember these moments, Cut 37, Ian Sams defending Joe Biden. The gratuitous remarks that the former Attorney General talked about have naturally caught headlines in all of your attention. They're wrong and they're inaccurate. I think also on this issue of the memory, it's been selectively chopped up and edited and sent around because of the confusing way that that report was written. There is no case here.
The president is innocent, and that was the conclusion of this case. When I deal with him, he's sharp, he's asking tough questions, and he's speaking, I think maybe most importantly, speaking passionately about what matters to him. I think, because I haven't met him. Yeah.
Well, I think he's also trying to cover himself, right?
Well, every time I've talked to him, he was just as sharp as a tat, guys, a couple of times that I saw him over the last couple of years. And now I think a lot of these people are going to sing like canaries because if they want to get a job in the industry ever again, they're going to have to throw Joe under the bus. They're going to have to throw somebody. They're going to have to say, Jill wouldn't let me go buy him. This was my impression.
Although it's pretty obvious. You didn't. I've never talked to Joe Biden in my life, Brian. And I could tell you that he was failing, right? Right.
He probably recognized you before. It would be Ian Sam's. Tommy, go do. Outnumbered the top of the hour and make me proud. I will.
You always do. And you showed me a picture right before this, 10 years ago. Your unboxing friends said. And life's gotten better since. It has.
All right.
Listen, we're going to come back and finish things up. You listen to the brain. Kill me, Joe. Yeah.
So thanks so much, Tommy. I'm going to let you go. I'm going to keep you here for a second because if you're late, I get in trouble. Uh and you gotta you gotta go down to studio M. Yes.
We're going to have to trek.
So, what we were talking about now with the AutoPen before, and people are saying, you know, what's next with the investigation? There's a lot next. You got. On September fifth, Andrew Bates, who's he, the former White House Senior Deputy Secretary. September twelfth, KJP, who left the Democratic Party, get this, to because the party left her.
My goodness. This is a woman who used the fact that she was a black lesbian to keep her job. They tried to get rid of her at the end midterms. They tried to get Admiral Kirby to take over or somebody else. And she said, No, I'm not going to do it.
They tried to get her a job. And she wouldn't leave. And now she leaves the Democratic Party. And also, this is going to be the big one: September 18th, Jeff Zeitz, former White House Chief of Staff.
So He knew everything. He knew what he was walking into. And essentially, that small group of people that Jeff Zeitz was one of them, not Ian Sams, obviously, or KJP. The reason why she was so clueless on the stump is because she didn't know the policy, and Joe Biden was not in charge of the policy.
So, September 12th, Jeff Zeitz is going to be huge. I have a sense that he has got to just say. Ron Klain is the other one. He Jeff Zeitz replaced Ron Klain as the chief of staff, but Ron Klain was still playing a huge role.
So he said that he could have he could have gotten another four years, but at the same time talked about how he was slipping.
So Jeff Zeitz was sitting right there. I mean you basically said Joe Biden is more important than the country.
So don't forget, I want to see you in Dallas, Texas, tomorrow night, and you can watch streaming on One Nation, on Fox Nation. And then don't forget One Nation Sunday night at 10 p.m. amongst my guests, Senator Lindsey Graham, Alexander Stubb, the president of Finland, who is the Trump whisperer, and so much more. Don't move. This is Jimmy Phala, inviting you to join me for Fox Across America, where we'll discuss every single one of the Democrats' dumb ideas.
